WEEK 7 MINGLE
POPULATION: 18 19
Good morning, starshines. It is another beautiful day here on the base, and it’s the start of a new week!
Good thing, too. After the death of Tartaglia Childe...well, perhaps there isn't any tension at all? Hard to say. Should anyone try to contact the deceased or review their profiles, they will find that they have been deleted from everyone's phones.
Perhaps you expect this by now, but it seems that the elevator reveals that it may now visit the eighth floor. It may be worth checking out these new areas, free for exploration. If you're feeling incredibly ambitious, you can also take a more in-depth look. Strange things are happening, little sinners. Don't be shy now.
While you can't contact the deceased, the Avatars are once again available via their eight symbols. Shoot them a message, have a chat with them, and see what you can learn. Perhaps you'll find it easier this week.
If you aren't too distracted, that is. For the most part, it may feel as though there isn't anything strange about this week. Everything proceeds as normal and life on the base is calm again. But every now and then, you'll feel a burning in your hand right where your tattoo is as it loses its color and fades to black temporarily. A sudden swell courses through your veins, almost as if being injected with a higher amount of your specific indulgence. You'll find it nearly impossible to do anything else until you act on it, draining the indulgence away and bringing color back to your marking. This won't always happen, and this won't always happen at a convenient time. It may be best to plan ahead. After all...if you ignore it for too long, you may find yourself changing. Those aligned with Envy may find themselves with several new eyes. Those aligned with Gluttony may find claws and a tail beginning to grow. Those aligned with Pride may feel a sharp pain in their head as a crown of thorns embeds itself into their skin. But the sooner you act, the sooner these changes will disappear.
Dedication's sweet, isn't it? Do try to give it your all.

Worth it! You didn't think I'd just abandon you entirely, did ya? We had to try.
no subject
[Please stop copying his destructive tendencies this is not the influence he wanted for you]
no subject
Besides, it's better to break things from this side, isn't it? We need you here.
no subject
What do you need us to do?
[Work Mode On always]
no subject
...first thing's first? Stay alive this time. [brutal.] Start talking to the people who've been on this side and see if you guys can solidify some kind of plan. I know Mr. Starphase told Medb a bunch of stuff, but without the limits now...maybe brainstorming'll be more effective.
no subject
You know that wasn't entirely my fault...
[LISTEN. But that's not terribly important right now, so he nods. Serious time!!]
We'll try to contain the chaos. [Who is we. Why is Childe talking like he has any control over anything. Stop.] Did you-- [He pauses, then shakes his head slightly, changing his question.] --are you staying with us tonight?
no subject
[they've hashed it out, it's fine. she's still holding his hands and kind of half-sprawling between him and royce.]
You are a strategist...I trust you on that one. [...she gives him a quizzical look because she wants to know what he was going to ask but she blinks instead.] You mean in the base? We're not going anywhere if that's what you mean. Why?
no subject
I meant down here, where we can keep an eye on you. [...] It is Thursday, after all.
[He is trying to talk around this even though that's probably pointless now]
no subject
Yeah, I guess so. [at this rate childe could ask her to go anywhere and she'd go.] I wanna stay with Royce though so it's up to him.
[dad.]
no subject
Where we goin]
no subject
I don't care. Wherever Iris wants.
no subject
no subject
What're your plans for the night anyway?
no subject
Mm, there's a few people I'd like to speak to, once everyone settles down a little. [(muffled ongoing screaming about cannibals and eyepatches or whatever)] Organize anything we might've missed, prepare for anything that might happen tonight... and rest, at some point.
[Honestly he could probably pull an all-nighter, and he will if it's needed, but he'd rather be well-rested to prepare for whatever's ahead.]
no subject
That sounds good....and a good order of events. Especially the resting part. [is it because she's still ready to knock out again? yeah.] Don't work too hard tonight though, okay?
no subject
[Working hard at breaking things... but he's just teasing.]
I'll come find you both later. Do you need anything?
no subject
I think we're okay for right now. But you better come back later for sure.
